Ingredients:

Serving

1 1- lb box linguine or spaghetti
8 oz yukon gold potatoes (peeled if desired)
1 tbsp kosher salt
10 oz green beans, ends trimmed
1 cup store-bought pesto
1/4 cup (1 oz) grated parmesan
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted (optional)

Directions:

Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Meanwhile, place the potatoes and salt in a large saucepan. Add enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are almost but not quite tender, about 15 minutes. Add the beans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the potatoes and green beans in a colander. Let cool slightly. Cut the potatoes into a 1/2-inch dice and cut the green beans into 1-inch pieces. Place the pasta in a large bowl and add the potatoes, green beans, pesto, Parmesan, and pine nuts (if using). Toss to combine.Tip: There's no need to peel thin-skinned potatoes like Yukon golds. But be sure to scrub them.
